Questions & Answers about الكون كبير.
How do I pronounce الكون كبير?
A careful Modern Standard Arabic pronunciation is:
- al-kawnu kabīrun
In everyday reading, when short case endings are not pronounced, you will often hear:
- al-kawn kabīr
A few notes:
- الكون = al-kawn
- كبير = kabīr
- The aw in kawn sounds like the ow in cow
- The ee in kabīr is a long vowel
Also, the l in ال is pronounced here, because ك is a moon letter, not a sun letter.
